do you think there's a meaning to life

^:) <3

There's lots of good words here. Life is truly what you make of it. You can either change certain parts of it, or accept the hand you've been dealt and go with it.

In short no, and sure this has been said before but there is no universal standard to which we can set our ideas and ways to live our life- nothing definitive by some arbitary principle as religion would try to have us believe. To horrificaly summarise the existential viewpoint- we as individuals give our own lives meaning by the things that we do, therefore your life is what you make of it and there is no one to tell you that you should beleive or indeed shouldn't beleive in something and give it its own intrinsic meaning. We shape our own lives through our own meanings and what we do, think and behave.
 
The meaning of life is what you can do to make the world and everybody's lives better. While this purpose has become skewed in recent years, particularly in the US, it is after all, the best way to become and stay happy, without fail.
 
I think there may be a meaning to life, but I don't think it's easy to grasp or articulate.

I would advise being wary of anyone who claims to be able to tell you with rock-solid confidence in clear and simple terms what your life's mission is, especially someone who barely knows you.

I know people who actually think that, they go through life being miserable everyday. It's far too common, some serious therapy should be given to these people.
